Migration Research and Development

Pillar 2: Migration Research and Development combines research on migration issues and trends with the development of context-specific responses and interventions. Examples of such initiatives include the following:

Compilation of customized SOPs for immigration departments

Design of tailored immigration training curricula, based on the well-established ACBC-developed Essentials of Migration Practice (currently available in English and French)

Development of customized document examination training curricula, based on the IOM Passport Examination Procedure Manual (available in English, French, Arabic and other languages)

Research on migration-related themes, such as regional regular and irregular migration patterns
